Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application belongs to the field of electrical technology, and specifically relates to an auxiliary power supply module and a dual power supply system. Background Art
[0002] A dual-power supply system is a power supply that automatically switches between two input power sources. Its operating principle is that when both inputs are normal, an automatic transfer switch selects one input for power supply. If that input fails, the automatic transfer switch switches to the other input. This power supply architecture provides redundant input power. In addition to an automatic transfer switch to implement circuit switching, this dual-power supply system also requires an auxiliary power supply module to provide power to the automatic transfer switch and other components in the system.

It generally includes two auxiliary power supplies. The two auxiliary power supply modules are respectively arranged on a printed circuit board, and the two auxiliary power supply modules need to meet certain insulation requirements. An isolation module needs to be set up or the two auxiliary power supplies need to be separated by a long distance, resulting in the auxiliary power supply module occupying a large area of the printed circuit board, which is not conducive to the miniaturization of the dual-power supply system.

[0033] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood to indicate or imply relative importance or the number of the technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature specified as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more features. In the description of this application, "plurality" means two or more, unless otherwise specifically specified.
[0034] In this application, the word "exemplary" is used to mean "serving as an example, instance, or illustration." Any embodiment described herein as "exemplary" is not necessarily to be construed as preferred or advantageous over other embodiments.
[0035] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 An embodiment of the present application provides an auxiliary power supply module 100, comprising a printed circuit board 110, a first electrical isolation module, and a second electrical isolation module. The printed circuit board 110 includes a first region 111, a second region 112, and a third region 113, arranged sequentially along a first direction. The first electrical isolation module and the second electrical isolation module are both disposed on the printed circuit board 110.
[0036] Part of the first electrical isolation module is disposed in the first area 111 , and another part is disposed in the second area 112 ; part of the second electrical isolation module is disposed in the third area 113 , and another part is disposed in the second area 112 .
[0037] The technical solution provided by the present application improves the space utilization of the printed circuit board 110 by placing two electrical isolation modules on the same printed circuit board 110, and the two electrical isolation modules share the second area 112, thereby improving the space utilization of the printed circuit board 110, reducing the volume of the auxiliary power supply module 100, and further miniaturizing the dual power supply system. Specifically, the area of the printed circuit board 110 for arranging the auxiliary power supply module is first divided into a first area 111, a second area 112, and a third area 113. The first area 111, the second area 112, and the third area 113 are arranged in sequence along a first direction, that is, the second area 112 is located between the first area 111 and the third area 113. Then, a portion of the first electrical isolation module is respectively arranged in the first area 111, and a portion of the second electrical isolation module is arranged in the third area 113. Another portion of the first electrical isolation module and another portion of the second electrical isolation module share the second area 112. This reduces the original four areas required to accommodate the two electrical isolation modules to only three areas required to accommodate the two electrical isolation modules, thereby improving the space utilization of the three areas and further miniaturizing the volume of the auxiliary power supply module 100 and the dual power supply system.
[0038] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first electrical isolation module includes an electrically connected first input circuit, a first transformer, and a first output circuit. The first input circuit and the first transformer are both located in a first area 111, maximizing the space in first area 111 and preventing excessive waste. The second electrical isolation module includes an electrically connected second input circuit, a second transformer, and a second output circuit. The second output circuit and the second transformer are both located in a third area 113, maximizing the space in third area 113 and preventing excessive waste.
[0039] The first and second output lines are both located in second area 112, allowing them to share space in second area 112, maximizing the use of space in second area 112 and improving the efficiency of second area 112. Furthermore, the use of a transformer effectively achieves electrical isolation, preventing interference between the input and output lines. Furthermore, by locating the output line between the two input lines, the two input lines are further physically isolated.
[0040] Furthermore, first region 111 includes a first sub-region 1111 and a second sub-region 1112. First sub-region 1111 and second sub-region 1112 are arranged sequentially along the second direction, with the first transformer located in first sub-region 1111 and the first input line located in second sub-region 1112. Similarly, third region 113 includes a third sub-region 1121 and a fourth sub-region 1122. Third sub-region 1121 and fourth sub-region 1122 are arranged sequentially along the second direction, with the second transformer located in third sub-region 1121 and the second input line located in fourth sub-region 1122. The first direction and the second direction are perpendicular, so that the first area 111 and the second area 112 can be further divided into two sub-areas in the second direction perpendicular to the first direction, and the corresponding input lines and transformers are arranged in the corresponding sub-areas, so that the input lines and the transformers do not occupy too much space of the printed circuit board 110 in the first direction in the first area 111 and the third area 113, but fully utilize the space of the first area 111 and the third area 113 in the second direction, effectively avoiding space waste in the first area 111 and the third area 113 in the second direction.
[0041] Furthermore, the first region 111 and the third region 113 have equal widths in the second direction, and the sum of the widths of the first sub-region 1111 and the second sub-region 1112 in the second direction is equal to the width of the second region 112 in the second direction. This arrangement ensures that the first region 111, the second region 112, and the third region 113 have equal widths in the second direction and are arranged flush, which effectively utilizes the space in the second direction among the three regions. In this embodiment, the first region 111 and the second region 112 have equal areas.
[0042] Furthermore, the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction, and the first region 111, the second region 112, and the third region 113 together form a rectangle, which facilitates the division of the three regions and the arrangement of the transformer, output circuits, and input circuits. Furthermore, the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction, making it easier to control the area of the three regions compared to when the first and second directions intersect at other angles, and also minimizing the total area of the three regions.
[0043] In some embodiments, the first sub-region 1111 and the second sub-region 1112 have equal areas, and the third sub-region 1121 and the fourth sub-region 1122 have equal areas, which is conducive to the division of each area and more convenient for the arrangement of the transformer, output line and input line.
[0044] In some embodiments, the first transformer and the second transformer are both planar transformers. The windings of the planar transformer are placed on the printed circuit board of the auxiliary power module, using printed circuit board routing, and the magnetic core is buckled on the printed circuit board. In detail, the planar transformer refers to a transformer directly integrated on the circuit board. The windings of the transformer use the copper foil layer on the circuit board instead of the enameled wire of the traditional transformer. The primary and secondary windings of the transformer are formed by stacking multiple circuit boards, and the magnetic core of the transformer is embedded or bonded to the circuit board. Compared with traditional transformers, planar transformers are smaller in size, and their planar structure has better heat dissipation performance, which is conducive to the miniaturization of the auxiliary power module 100. By using planar transformers for the first transformer and the second transformer, it is beneficial for the first transformer to be located in the first sub-area 1111 and the second transformer to be located in the third sub-area 1121, avoiding the situation where the transformer cannot be located in the sub-area due to its large size.
[0045] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the auxiliary power supply module 100 also includes a first input pin, a second input pin and an output pin. The first input pin is provided on the printed circuit board 110 and is electrically connected to the first input circuit, for inputting external power into the first input circuit. The second input pin is provided on the printed circuit board 110 and is electrically connected to the second input circuit, for inputting external power into the second input circuit. The output pin is provided on the printed circuit board 110 and is electrically connected to both the first output circuit and the second output circuit, for outputting power through the output pin. The output pin here is electrically connected to both output circuits, which includes two situations. The first situation is that the first output circuit and the second output circuit are merged into a total output circuit by using a diode, and the total output circuit is electrically connected to the output pin; the second situation is that the first output circuit is connected to the output pin, and the second output circuit is connected to the output pin, and the first output circuit and the second output circuit are independent circuits and are not merged. In this embodiment, the second method is adopted, as follows:
[0046] The output pins include a first output sub-pin and a second output sub-pin. The first output circuit is electrically connected to the first output sub-pin, and the second output circuit is electrically connected to the second output sub-pin. This arrangement can avoid the situation in which, in the first scenario, a failure of the main output circuit causes the auxiliary power supply module 100 to be unable to output power.
[0047] In some embodiments, the first input pin is located on one side of the second sub-region 1112. Because the first input circuit is located in the second sub-region 1112, the first input pin can be placed as close to the first input circuit as possible, reducing the area required for wiring. The second input pin is located on one side of the fourth sub-region 1122. Similarly, the second input pin can be placed as close to the second input circuit as possible, reducing the area required for wiring. Similarly, the output pin is located on one side of the third region 113, placing the output pin as close to the output circuit as possible, reducing the area required for wiring. Furthermore, the first input pin, the second input pin, and the output pin are located on the same side of the third region 113. This indicates that the first input pin, the second input pin, and the output pin are all located on the side of the second sub-region 1112 facing away from the first sub-region 1111 in the second direction. This prevents the first input pin, the second input pin, and the output pin from being located on different sides, thereby increasing the area occupied by the auxiliary power supply module 100 on the printed circuit board 110.
[0048] In some embodiments, the auxiliary power supply module 100 can be a flyback isolation topology circuit, a forward isolation topology circuit, a half-bridge circuit, a full-bridge circuit, a push-pull circuit, etc. In this embodiment, a flyback isolation topology circuit is used as an example as follows:
[0049] See Figure 3 The auxiliary power supply module 100 includes an input capacitor C in, a primary switch tube Q, a primary controller CL, an output rectifier circuit RC, an output capacitor C out, and a transformer T. The input capacitor C in, the primary switch tube Q, and the primary controller CL belong to the input circuit part, while the output rectifier circuit RC and the output capacitor C out belong to the output circuit part. For specific connection relationships, see Figure 3 .
[0050] See Figure 4 The auxiliary power module includes two lines, which are combined into one output through a diode. One line is the first input line, the first transformer and the first output line, and the other line is the second input line, the second transformer and the second output line. The two lines have the same structure, that is, they both include input capacitor Cin, primary switch tube Q, primary controller CL, output rectifier line RC, output capacitor Cout, and transformer T. For specific connection relationships, please see Figure 4 .
[0051] See Figure 5Embodiments of the present application also provide a dual power supply system, comprising an auxiliary power module 100, an automatic switching switch module 200, and a control circuit for the automatic switching switch module 200, as described in any of the aforementioned embodiments. The input of the automatic switching switch module 200 is connected to the input of the auxiliary power module 100, and the output of the auxiliary power module 100 supplies power to the control circuit of the automatic switching switch module 200. The output of the automatic switching switch module 200 is connected to a subsequent converter. Specifically, one end of the automatic switching switch module 200 is electrically connected to the auxiliary power module 100, and the other end is connected to the subsequent converter. The automatic switching switch module 200 has two circuits, one of which is electrically connected to the first output circuit of the auxiliary power module 100 at one end and to the subsequent converter at the other end; the other circuit is electrically connected to the second output circuit of the auxiliary power module 100 at one end and to the subsequent converter at the other end. By controlling a switch in the automatic switching switch module 200, one of the two circuits is turned on. Because the dual power supply system is provided with the auxiliary power supply module 100 , it also has the corresponding structure and beneficial effects of the auxiliary power supply module 100 , which will not be described in detail here.
